React Server Components... in Rails?
Jérôme Parent-Lévesque • April 03, 2024 • Montréal, Canada

Montreal.rb Ruby Talk 2024/04 - React Server Components... in Rails? - Jérôme Parent-Lévesque - Engineering Lead at Potloc

React Server Components are the next milestone in the React core team's initiative to ease web development (and are the hot new thing!). They aim to greatly improve the user experience by lowering the number of roundtrips necessary between the client and server and by streaming data as soon as it becomes available. However, they are currently only usable in the Next.js framework with a Node backend... But couldn't we mimic what this backend does in Rails and leverage this to modernize React development in Rails?

In this talk we will explain some of the inner workings of React Server Components, their benefits and how they can be implemented in any backend.
